Financially speaking this is a very smart thing to do. Why waste money on rent/or house payment if your parent's house has enough room for you?

Other countries do this and it is the norm and isn't looked down upon.

And the idea of nuclear family is slowing fading away because single earner family members can no longer provide for an entire family.

In the 70's and 80's a single earner could pay for a house and raise a family. With wages and benefits the way they are now, it now takes 2 people to earn an income to support themselves. Corporations take advantage of this and refuse to pay living wages.

PS2 and SNES I think are still better.

And for this gen, I really think the PS4 may be the best, it gets all the 3rd Party AAA games, has a good online experience, has great exclusives, and for me it's really easy to use and user friendly.

@Jag85: I get some of your points but maybe there is some misinformation out there coming from both sides.

Sega of Japan approached Sega of America about making a new genesis console, Project Mars, but Sega of America wanted it to be an add on instead of a new stand alone console.

I don't know what's true with this situation, I think there was some in fighting and jealously for sure between the two Sega's. Either way, they had multiple projects going on at the same time for a new system and it was a waste of resources for sure. They needed to put all energy into the Saturn and they didn't.

And the Sega CD was bad, and Sonic CD is a bit over rated.

I'm gonna wait for a $299 price point.

I'll try and get some cool special edition console 2 years after release around the holidays or something.

@vfighter: Exactly!

People need to remember that the Dreamcast came out before the PS2, Xbox, and Gamecube. When you went to the store to play the demos or if you or your friend had one, it was the first time seeing games look like arcade games or better in your home.

When I first played I Dreamcast I was blown away. It made my PS1 games look dated and clunky.

I'd like to see Motorstorm comeback

For my fellow Socom Fans, Ghost Recon Wildlands PVP is very similar to Socom. I would give that a try.

I don't think Socom would do well in the current MP market. There's just so much competition.

@davillain-: It was basically company civil war, and it's sad. I really feel if Sega America was left with control of those big decisions in the American Market the console landscape may have been different today. I still think the Dreamcast may have been the last Sega Console but I think it would have lasted a lot longer and we would have had a 4 console generation for a lot longer.

Still trying to figure out why the Dreamcast is so loved by people yet not many people owned one. Seems like some nostalgic niche group. Sega lost the battle. To a point Nintendo helped them lose. The Dreamcast was the bottom feeder of Generation 6. Sega messed up 3 gens in a row & they were doing so well during Gen 4.

Because it was the first time we were able to get ARCADE quality graphics and game play in the home. Before consoles could get close, but the arcade games always looked better. The Dreamcast changed this, basically because the dreamcast was a mini arcade cabinet.

I still play Hydro Thunder on my Dreamcast, it's a near perfect port. If you don't like arcade games then yeah the Dreamcast is not for you.

For those able to play right now:

Is it easy to ignore all the micro transactions in the game? As in, is the game still fun once you're in the world playing and it isn't a forced grind fest to get new gear?

I was born in '96 so I didn't get to experience any of it unfortunately. A lot of people look back on that decade with nostalgia, especially some users on this forum.

No SJW's. Relatively sane politics. Communism was still considered a bad idea. Trannies weren't a thing. Women were still relatively normal. You didn't need a university degree to get a dishwashing job. The weirdest things people did to themselves was to get a tattoo. Pong. Pac-Man. The original Legend of Zelda.

Good times.

Ugh I know im feeding the troll here......

All of those things/ideas for those things were in the 80's.....
